Low oil pressure??
Hi all. Dont know if this is normal but I seem to have very low oil pressure on tickover, though driving pressure seems normal...
Oil temp is always normal and I regually top the levels off. The only issue ive had is the usual ISCV which sometimes drops the revs to stalling point.
Spirited or m/way driving I get 4 to 4.5 psi, normal drving about 3 psi but on tickover it sometimes drops to 1 psi or hovers below. Obviously the lower revs drops the oil pressure but this seems excessive?

seems fine for a warm car mate!
mine is usually (iirc)
cold start - 5bar
warm constant 70mph - 3 bar - oil temp 90 deg
warm idle - 1 bar - oil temp 80 deg
warm thrashing - 4-5-6 bar - oil temp 100 deg
you should only really be worried when its cold and still has no pressure, or when hot giving it a thrashing and it still has no pressure!
